lots of bros want to "go big" and run 35" tars. I dream small. Thats more than enough wheel/tar for me to dip off road. Mild lift @3" and I'll be in the dirt.
Not bad for some deep muddy adventures I guess but these wheels look 5/7 capable. Didn't even know you got a Jeep!

You're spending your anniversary carting around broken cars and buying mud tires? :impressive:

I miss the 32" or 33" on a 15" rim look.

Same. In many cases, modern brakes are just too big to fit. 16s and 17s are still the rage, and 35+ on a set of 17s fits the part :notbad:

He's got that Bayou Billy employee gas card. :aintcare:
:dat:

you know Exxon loses so much fuel from docks pump from employee theft, they upgraded all the pump meter to high tech stuff to close their margin of error on mass volume readings.

welp, wasnt the metering gauges, the employees were still stealing a SHIT ton of fuel. :fax: told me about this last week. :lolol:

close.

they were pretty much :aintcare: , but upgraydd for better accuracy overall and were still coming up short almost the same amount...... basically they fuel thefts when from inside the margin of error to outside it before the d00ds got busted.

Jeep suspension is done! Only weird sound on the test drive afterwards was a zip tie hitting the driveshaft. :lol: We forgot to snip the end off and it was making a buzzing sound. We have some positive front camber to deal with, but once it gets aligned we should be all good! :fuckyeah: IFS is a biatch.
